BULBRITE announced it has expanded
its line of energy efficient halogen lamps
with the introduction of the Eco-Friendly
Halogen A19, which fits all standard and
dimmable lighting fixtures.
These energy-efficient lamps are compliant
with EISA, which enforces strict
efficiency requirements for incandescent
lamps. Effective 2012, general service
light bulbs must operate up to 30% more
energy efficient than current standards
require. Consumers will gain the benefits
of higher efficiency and superior lighting
quality without having to convert to CFLs
or LEDs.

GREENLITE
LIGHTING, a
manufacturer
and distributor
of energy-efficient
lighting
such as
CFL and LED
lamps, has introduced
a new CFL that includes a built-in
“nitelite.”
Two light-emitting diodes are perched at
the top of the lamp through the recesses in
the spiral tube, so the overall size is unaffected.
The lamp is smaller than a standard
household A-19 incandescent (uses T2
Ultra-Mini spiral technology).

Cooper Controls, a unit of Cooper
Industries, has introduced ControlSpec,
a web-based project design and specification
tool to aide contractors, specifiers,
and manufacturers agents in the design
and implementation of Cooper lighting
control systems. Unique to ControlSpec, all information
generated is specific to the products on
that project
vs. generalized
specifications,
diagrams,
and descriptions.
This
ensures contractors, distributors, and designers
have only the necessary documentation
related to that project reducing the
opportunity for errors and omissions.
